Wesley's Notes for Jeremiah 11:20

11:18 Thou shewedst me - This may be understood with relation to that conspiracy which is mentioned in the following verses.

11:19 Let us destroy - We have no other mention of this conspiracy, but it is plain both from this verse, and what follows, that the men of Anathoth (which was Jeremiah's own town) were offended at his prophesying, and had conspired to kill him. Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof - Let us not only put an end to his prophesying, but to his life.
